  3. Step 3: Observe the two red lights at the rear of the drone flashing rapidly. Rotate the drone horizontally for more than three full turns until the left red light stops flashing and becomes constant.
  4. Step 4: Rotate the drone vertically for more than three full turns until the right red light stops flashing.
  5. Step 5: The app will display the drone's camera feed, indicating successful geomagnetic correction.
